Wayne's World
Wolverine
Wayne's World: Publisher: THQ.
Year: 1993. Difficulty: Easy. Graphics: Good.
This
game is easy to beat. I beat it
the first day I brought it home from the store. Still, it's fun
to play Wayne and Garth in a video game. The graphics are a
little crude and the characters aren't real good likenesses to their
TV/movie counterparts. Still, Garth has a taser that he can zap
bad guys with while Wayne can kick his opponents. Throughout the
course of the game you'll be able to fight ninjas, black cats, giant
spiders, bouncers, musical instruments that have come to life, the Tidy
Bowl Man, and many other things. Between levels you'll see Wayne
and Garth talking about the same things they do in the first "Wayne's
World" movie.
Wolverine:
Publisher: LJN. Year: 1991.
Difficulty: Easy. Graphics: Good.
This game is
easy to beat. The hardest
part about winning this game is the final battle with his enemy
Sabretooth...because he's always bouncing around! But if you can
push the villain over the cliff you've got it made! Lots of
interesting locations and villains to fight. After Wolverine
kills so many villains, he goes into a temporarily invincible berzerker
rage! Collecting burgers and beer bottle icons increases his
strength. There are also cameos from other X-Men heroes including
Havok, Psylocke, and Jubilee. When you find Psylocke, she'll give
you a device that can summon Havok when your strength is low.
She's drawn pretty "big" in her brief appearance. Yowza!
When you find Jubilee, she'll give you a device that will allow you to
breathe underwater for a longer period of time. Magneto is the
main villain you fight before Sabretooth and he is EXTREMELY easy to
beat. He isn't any harder to fight than the thugs. The
graphics are pretty well done, but all the characters are so small on
the screen that you just get the idea that you're seeing Wolverine,
Magneto, Havok, Sabretooth, ninjas, etc. They aren't very
detailed. The best thing about
this game is that you're playing the roughest, toughest member of the
X-Men throughout the entire game and taking him on many wild adventures
in the skies, above ground, underground, in the water, and through
tunnels and mazes of all varieties.
